Per VINdown's modeling, the Sunchaser 8525 LR DH retains an estimated 65% of its value after five years, ranking #3043 of 5780 boats we track. That is 3 points above the 62% five-year average for Pontoon in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Sunchaser 8525 LR DH sheds about 7% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $43,448 it falls to around $28,371 by year five — a five-year loss near $15,077, about $8.26 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Sunchaser 8525 LR DH bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
